Frames (the audio path/physical desk):
4000
5000
6000

9000
Computers (automation and recall):
E
G
G+
J
K
4k and 9k are the most common frames
4ks can have E or G/G+ computers
9ks are Js or Ks
5k - 7k are normally G+s

there are also EQ differences between E and G 9ks are switchable between the E/G

Yea. The "SSL sound" is easy to describe

Are any of you guys using Elysia plug ins?

How do they map to the EQ and Dyn panels?

Do most 3rd party developers plugs map to a d-command ?

The big ones do. Waves. Msdsp. Etc... I wish slate did. (I mean map to d control. I don't know about d command. )

Yep like Arche said, we use mapped plugins everyday on D Control and works pretty well. Too bad not all boutique plugin devs do that too #wishes

How are the Oxford EQ and Dyns?

It would be great if there was a grand list somewhere!

Oxford eq and dynamics map perfectly to icon d control center section. I find myself sticking to the mapped plugs more due to convenience. But I still use Slate. What I have been doing this past few year is have hardware eqs as inserts. But I never change the settings on the hardware. For example I use a couple pultecs setup for bass and synth bass and I never change the knobs. I just patch them in. All my hardware is setup permanently in the i/o setup and labeled. So I treat them like one setting plugins. I have a massive passive for the mixbuss. Etc... never change settings. The massive passive I have eq bypassed even... lol. A couple 1176 compressors set on all button in for bass. Never touch the settings. I just mix into these hardware units.

Yes I'm planning the same.

I have 4 x 192's here so will dedicate 16 outs to the cue system and the others will be wired to outboard with all inserts labled.. it'll be great!
